Another set of columnset issues: columnset areas
(1)
In the columnsets manual, there’s a type key or a second optional parameter to
\definecolumnsetarea that’s actually missing (commented code in page-cst.mkiv).
The manual doesn’t explain the setup keys; I assume x/nx is in columns, y/ny is
in lines, while x/y is the start and nx/ny the size.
(2)
Since float placement doesn’t work like I need it (must make another MWE to
better nail it), I thought I’d try columnset areas for the placement of ads:
\usemodule[visual]
\useMPlibrary[dum]
\definecolor[fakerulecolor][gray]
\setuplayout[
grid=yes,
]
\showframe[text]
\showgrid
\definecolumnset[Two][
n=2,
page=no,
]
\definecolumnsetarea[AdSpace][
x=1,y=20,
nx=1,ny=20,
state=stop
]
\starttext
\startcolumnset[Two]
\fakewords{20}{30}
\setupcolumnsetareatext[AdSpace]{\externalfigure[MyAd][width=\textwidth,height=0.45\textheight]}
\setupcolumnsetarea[AdSpace][state=start]
\fakewords{200}{200}
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext
The "AdSpace" should cover the lower left quarter of the page, y=20 should
start it in line 20, and ny=20 should make it 20 lines high, right?
But "MyAd" appears always at the place where I put \setupcolumnsetareatext.
Is this an error on my side, or is the code just incomplete/buggy/not ready?
